Costly scam rears its ugly head again
City Power would like to warn the general public, especially its suppliers, not to be duped by a syndicate that is pretending to be City Power employees looking for quotations to buy products and services from its suppliers.
City Power will never send a supplier a quotation request. All its quotation requests are sought through the internet on their official website: https://www.citypower.co.za.

A supposed City Power employee asking for a quotation from the supplier on City Power’s behalf is not a genuine employee of the utility and must be reported to 011 490 7112 or 011 490 7529 or 011 490 7074.
These fraudsters who pretend to be City Power employees are using the names of senior City Power officials, incorrect City Power telephone numbers and email addresses to solicit quotations to do business with these suppliers.
If you receive a request for a quotation from a City Power employee, kindly turn over the contact details of the bogus employee to City Power at the numbers mentioned above or report them to your nearest police station.
